Decorating Advice and Paint Colors

I think that when the 90′s style get’s recycled, & it all gets recycled sometime, there will be a lot of our favorites coming back.  I think sky murals, & slate floors will be the first to return.  Mold sponge painting & forest green are hopefully gone, never to be heard from again.

I just had some final thoughts on this style. There are a lot of tailored slipcovers out to cover up that green plaid sofa. We had slipcovers in the 90′s, with matching linen tab curtains with brown buttons.  These slipcovers were too loose & made the furniture look fat & ghostly.  I prefer a slipcover with separate seat cushions so it looks more like a couch.  I have tabbed curtains in several rooms.  If the curtains are looking plain or tired, maybe cut off the bottom & sew a contrasting fabric to the hem.  I’ve also just cut the tabs off the curtains & either sewn or clipped rings on because they open so much easier. The 90′s were a very matchy matchy time in decorating, & I think the next time around it will be warmer & more eclectic.

I don’t know how many times I have seen a perfectly good kitchen torn out, just because there are one or two accent tiles that well, aren’t so pretty.  That’s why I was so excited to see a new product on HGTV. There are these cool tile stickers that are quite affordable.  You can get small accents, or even a larger mural, & you can install them yourself.  When you get tired of them, you can remove them. I especially love the tiles that look like mosaic. These are great to use if you have an all white kitchen & want a splash of color. I think this is a great way for renter’s to personalize their space, or for anyone to update those 1 or 2 tiles they don’t love.
